Description

Last year, 200 colleges offered close to $16 million in eSports scholarships. Students that have never participated in school teams or clubs are leading their teams. And it’s more than just gaming – eSports develops skills in coding, game design, shoutcasting, marketing, and communication – to name a few. In this session, Fresno Unified will share their five-year journey in eSports, from concept to college scholarships.   FETC Workshops require an additional registration fee or premium registration. All workshops are BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) for hands on participation.
